Sony Slashes Price Of PS3 Development Kit

Things have been looking better for Sony in the past few weeks and now more great news has surfaced. The price of the PS3 development kit has just been cut in half by Sony. The PlayStation 3 Reference Tool will now be available for JPY 950,000 in Japan, USD 10,250 in North America and EUR 7500 in Europe.
As more cost saving measures are taken, the development community will be more open to creating more titles for the PS3. Sony has also been working hard on integrating development tools such as the PS3 Debugging Station which can now be used simultaneously with the Reference Tool, which was not the case in the past. I have said this before and I certainly believe it; 2008 will be a huge year for the PS3 library. Things may still seem a little slow right now, but big things are happening.
